Jordan & family

My deepest condolences on the loss of your mother. Mrs. G was a great and wonderful person and was always a favourite amongst the kids when we were growing up. Best times were had eating her homemade jam and going on trips to your cabin with your family. Remember and cherish all the great memories and know that she was loved by all.

Take care – Love The Taylor family

My sincere condolences on the loss of your mother. We were neighbors in Coquitlam for many years and she was a lovely person and a good friend.

Sincere condolences to your family from our family. We were neighbours in Coquitlam and met Iris through her Avon sales. Our daughters and my husband and I always looked forward to her visits over many years and are sorry for your loss.

What a terrible loss. To the end Iris showed such a positive , dignified energy. I’m so glad I spent some time with her and only wish I’d known her for a longer time . I shall miss her greatly. My deepest sympathy to her family
